  • Title: Vertigo.
    Author: Holt GR, Thomas JR.
    Journal: Am Fam Physician; 1976 Oct; 14(4):84-92. PubMed ID: 983924.
    Abstract:
    Vertigo, with or without nystagmus, may accompany many diseases. Most causes are transient and benign. A systematic approach saves valuable time. Nonrotational dizziness must be distinguished from true vertigo in which a sensation of motion is involved. Careful evaluation of nystagmus is essential, as is a complete cardiovascular examination. Meniere's syndrome, while common, is overdiagnosed.
